Guest markargente Posted December 3, 2007 Report Share Posted December 3, 2007 I recently installed Mandriva 2008.0. I am trying to get Internet Connection Sharing to work with my Xbox 360. I used the "Share the Internet connections with local machines" tab in the Control Center. Using that setup, I can get the xbox working with a dynamic IP address, but if I restart my computer, my settings aren't saved and I have to start all over. So then I tried using this guide: http://www.iwpcs.co.uk/ics.html The main thing I need is that the xbox's IP be dynamic and not static. with the 192.168.0.x subnet This is the current info: (I made backups in case I fudged anything) eth2: The connection where I am receiving the Internet eth1: The connection that is sharing the Internet connection: ifcfg-eth2: DEVICE=eth2 BOOTPROTO=dhcp ONBOOT=yes MII_NOT_SUPPORTED=yes #This was set to no on my machine originally RESOLV_MODS=no #This was in my file, and not in the guide so i kept it IPV6INIT=no #This was in my file, and not in the guide so i kept it IPV6TO4INIT=no #This was in my file, and not in the guide so i kept it DHCP_CLIENT=dhclient NEEDHOSTNAME=no #This was in my file, and not in the guide so i kept it PEERDNS=yes #This was in my file, and not in the guide so i kept it PEERYP=yes #This was in my file, and not in the guide so i kept it PEERNTPD=no #This was in my file, and not in the guide so i kept it ifcfg-eth1: DEVICE=eth1 BOOTPROTO=static IPADDR=192.168.0.1 NETMASK=255.255.255.0 NETWORK=192.168.0.0 BROADCAST=192.168.0.255 ONBOOT=yes MII_NOT_SUPPORTED=yes #This was in my file, and not in the guide so i kept it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
